For those who say that Bob probably didn't weld these gates himself - Frank Lloyd Wright didn't actually build the houses known as his...So what?

Can we leave that question up to the traditions of the community of people who do this kind of work? There imo is zero suggestion of non-originality here (it's all in the provenance of the items in the fence) but at least since the Asia Series and the way it stepped on well developed conventions, Bob is inviting us to evaluate his art on the originality to theft axis, as I'm sure Mr Warmuth would agree.

Years after the fact Macleans Magazine got roasted for an exposé it did on a sculptor. They framed it as besmurching the poor man's character to assign elements of his plan to his team to execute. Eventually this was all debunked. So on that basis I assume there is no controversy looming here.
